“Ashley was incredible with our two dogs and our home. She gave our young dog enough exercise by taking him on runs. And she gently lifted our older dog to go places he couldn't go himself. She sent us pics and videos regularly so we were at ease. It was our first time to use Rover and we couldn't be happier with the site or with Ashley. We've already told her we want to use her every time we're out of town. Five stars for this pet and house sitter!”
“Emily did a great job watching our dog and two cats. They seemed happy and healthy when we got back and the house was super clean. We’ll definitely be booking with Emily again in the future!”
About: I have grown up with and taken care animals since I can remember from dogs and cats to fish and birds to even chickens! I have watched puppies and senior dogs. I currently work from home as a secretary so I have a lot of free time in between calls and invoicing to love on and care for your pet. I also can work anywhere, not just at home. With the help of my fiancé, Tristan, we will definitely take care of your pets with care! I can take care of your fur baby like you would depending on your preferences. I can crate your pet if needed and take them on the walks and exercise that they my need.
About: My name is Lacey, and I have been an avid pet lover my whole life. My mom was like Dr. Doolittle, so I’ve had a large variety of strange animals as pets (including an alpaca, opossums, mice, etc.) and loved them all the same! Currently I have an orange cat named Baby, and she has the most personality. I am so so so excited to meet new furry friends through this experience. I graduated from the University of Nebraska Lincoln and am now in California pursuing acceptance into medical school. In the meantime I am trying to earn some extra money, and this opportunity to do that via hanging out with cute animals was just too good to be true. Can’t wait to meet you and your pet :)
“Kiah was absolutely wonderful. We were gone for just over a week and we got daily pictures and videos of our dog’s adventures. She was more than happy to continue building training/good behavior as he has been with us for only a couple of months. Although I cleared it beforehand, she went above and beyond watering my garden and even took our dog on adventures and (approved) multi-dog walks, helping socialization and confidence! We will absolutely continue to use her services!”
About: I’ve had experience with every animal from exotics and reptiles to the more common pet like cats and dogs! I used to train colts but now manage my funny farm. I currently work full time but am available at least two full days a week and 18 hours a day 3 days a week with a flexible schedule! I have a fenced yard as well as an outdoor kennel and miles of open fields to provide ample entertainment for your most adventurous pet! Or we can chill inside with centralized air conditioning.
“Pauline went "above and beyond" accommodating changes in our plans due to rain, and always responded quickly to my messages! Pauline & Richard showed up promptly for our house sitting -- they quickly bonded with our doodle who we knew was in good hands getting lots of play and attention. Many thanks again for the flexibility with weather rescheduling!!!”
“Jennifer was GREAT!!! She kept me informed through out the day by sending pictures and videos. She even took him to the local dog park but not before asking if I thought he would be ok. Very considerate. I definitely recommend her to anyone staying in Cambria and is in need of a dog sitter. 5 stars!”
“Ten ⭐️! Robyn came to our rescue with a last minute booking. She took extraordinary care of our senior Golden and two cats. We were sent videos of play time, brushing and belly rub time… our pets adored her. I read all her five star reviews and have to agree she is the best pet sitter we’ve ever had- and we’ve had many!”

“We actually ended up taking our dogs over to Janice’s house, where they spent the night. Janice sent pictures of the dogs enjoying themselves thoroughly; sitting on laps, lounging on the couch and generally being spoiled! We could see that they were well taken care of and”

FAQs for House Sitting - Lake Nacimiento
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Lake Nacimiento on Rover is $37.14 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 223 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Lake Nacimiento. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Lake Nacimiento walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Lake Nacimiento maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Lake Nacimiento choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lake Nacimiento. On Rover:
- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 91% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 91% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
